“Their world is not your world — show them your fire,” VIKËLLE sings in her new song “Vohon,” telling about the inner conflict that arises when other people’s opinions and judgments begin to influence you too strongly. For the artist, this release marks a return to active creativity after an approximately two-year break and the beginning of a new stage in her music project.
“Vohon” was created very quickly. The singer accidentally heard a beat on YouTube, and from the very first notes, lyrics and a vocal melody began to appear in her mind. Gradually, the track developed into a complete story about the moment when other people’s opinions begin to influence the way you perceive yourself too strongly.
During the creation of the song, the artist was experiencing a lot of anger and had a strong desire to prove to others that she could act and create the way she herself felt. At the same time, other people’s opinions and judgments still had a strong influence on her. This inner conflict became the basis of “Vohon.” Through the song, the artist speaks about returning to herself, to her own feelings and her own voice — and about the decision to do what you feel yourself, rather than be guided by other people’s opinions.
The new release also demonstrates the artist’s approach to creating her own project. She works independently not only on music, but also on photography, video, design and visual concepts. The artist acts as the creative director of her own releases and uses AI as a tool for creating visual stories.
One of the continuations of “Vohon” will be an original animated mini-series that the singer is creating with the help of AI. The idea, script, visual concept and realization of the project belong to her. The plot tells the story of four robbers who enter a strange house. The space gradually becomes increasingly disturbing and unreal, and the characters discover a hidden music studio and a computer with mysterious files. Each episode will last approximately 1.5–2 minutes.
The mini-series is not a literal retelling of the song, but develops its atmosphere through a separate story. It will consist of two episodes: the first will be released one day before the release and will introduce viewers to the story, while the second will be released on the day of the premiere of “Vohon,” continue the plot and lead directly to the track. The day after the release, the final part of this story — a music video / AI Visual for “Vohon” — will be released.
VIKËLLE also worked on the music as an author. She wrote the lyrics and created the vocal melody / topline of the composition. The author of the original beat was SHYY (Producer). Nate Maelz (Serhii Mykoliuk) was responsible for the recording, mixing and mastering of the track, and also, together with the artist, partially contributed to the arrangement and production, further developing the original beat with separate sounds and effects.
Before “Vohon,” the artist had already released her own music and two EPs, after which she took a creative break of approximately two years. The new release marks VIKËLLE’s return to active creativity and opens a new stage in her music project. At the same time, “Vohon” is the artist’s first systematic entry into the Ukrainian media space, from which she begins a new page in her creative work.
VIKËLLE is a Ukrainian artist and songwriter who works at the intersection of alternative pop, rap and R&B. Her music is combined with an original visual direction in which photography, video, design and AI become parts of a unified creative concept. “Vohon” continues this approach, turning a music release into a broader story about the freedom to be yourself and your own voice.
